Customer Questions & Answers

Can you please advise me of which cartridge and paper pack would be suitable for printing passport photos please? Thank you.

Canon Selphy CP500 cartridges

Unfortunately, we do not list any of these photo packs as being suitable for printing passport photos. This may require specific dimensions used in photo booths. The Canon Selphy CP600 photo packs have credit card sized prints or post card sized prints. Either of these will still print off photos but not necessarily to the correct size. The post card sized packs are 100 x 150mm and the credit card sized packs are 86 x 54mm. Our understanding is that passport size photo dimensions are smaller at 35 x 45mm.

Can i purchase ink only for the Canon Selphy CP500 photo printer?

Canon CP500 ink only purchases

Unfortunately not. Canon only manufacture combined ink and paper photo packs for use in the Canon Selphy CP500 printer which should give you the right amount of ink to go with the paper. Individual ink cassettes aren't available for the Canon CP500 printer from any retailer so in order to get the ink you need to purchase one of the photo packs listed on this page of our website.

Canon Selphy CP500 Printer Review

Expert review of the Canon Selphy CP500 printer

Our Verdict:

The Canon Selphy CP500 offers high-quality photos that are durable and also supports borderless printing. It is capable of printing credit-card sized media and mini labels. Users will be amazed at how much such a small printer can do. The Selphy CP500 works without a computer through the PictBridge port. Printing is a bit slow, though, and only a limited type of media can be used.

Design

The sleek design of the Canon Selphy CP500 makes it a great companion for vacations. With its small size and light weight, it can fit and be tucked neatly in small homes and rooms. It comes with a paper cassette that can be stored neatly in the printer and has a PictBridge port for PC-free printing.

Advantages

Both Macintosh and Windows operating systems are supported by the Canon Selphy CP500. Users can expect high-quality photos from this printer. Aside from printing photos, it can also be used for printing ID prints for passports and ID's. All Canon cameras are compatible with the Canon Selphy CP500 for direct printing.

Disadvantages

The main purpose of Canon Selphy CP500 is for photo printing, so it can only handle a maximum of 4 x 6 inch prints. The print speed is also slow compared to regular-sized inkjet printers although image quality will probably be better for photo prints.
